Make a difference through safe and reliable transport

At AXIA Solutions, we believe every child deserves to feel safe, supported and protected.

We work with children and young people in Out of Home Care (OOHC), helping them stay connected with their families, schools, appointments and communities. We are seeking reliable, compassionate and safety-focused Transport Workers to support children and families across NSW.

This is a meaningful prospect for someone who enjoys working independently, driving and making a positive difference in the lives of children and young people.

What your day will look like

In this role, you will:

- Safely transport children and young people to and from school, family contact visits, appointments, extracurricular activities and other approved destinations.
- Transport children and family members to appointments and activities as required.

- Help children feel comfortable and supported during transitions between home, school, family and other settings.
- Communicate professionally with families, carers, management and other relevant stakeholders.
- Observe and report any concerns about a child's wellbeing, safety or presentation.
- Maintain confidentiality and follow AXIA's policies, procedures and child-secure practices.

Some shifts may involve regional travel or longer distances outside your local area.

Why this role matters

For children in out-of-home care, reliable transport is about more than getting from one place to another. It can help maintain important family connections, support education and appointments, and provide consistency during what may be a challenging time.

As an AXIA Transport Worker, you will play an important role in helping children access the people, services and activities that support their wellbeing and development.

- A current NSW Working With Children Check (WWCC) for paid employment
